    Getting Started in - Jenice Adams

    Introduction

    ––––––––

    The objective is not to completely eliminate stress or anxiety. This is some-thing we need to make clear right from the very start.

    Believe it or not, stress and anxiety are actually useful emotions. Both put the body into a physiological state of heightened arousal, attention and awareness and can even increase physical strength and power. When you’re stressed, you’re essentially ‘amped up’ and this makes you better at completing physical tasks or reacting on the spot.

    Psychologists have also shown that stress can be a positive motivating force in the right circumstances. Stress is what compels us to study for ex-

    ams and what motivates us to save money as a contingency fund. Specifi-cally, this type of stress is known as ‘eustress’ and is a very useful phe-nomenon.

    The problem is that many of us have no control over when we become stressed or when we get anxiety. This then in turn leads to us feeling those emotions in maladaptive situations.

    Being chased by a lion? Then yes, the fight or flight response as it is known is exactly what you need.

    About to give a big speech to a large audience? Then the same response is going to make you look nervous and unconfident.

    Likewise, it’s important that the stress response be appropriate to the situa-tion that we’re in. Being a little stressed in a crowd is normal – but having such a powerful response that you end up having a panic attack and faint-ing is a problem.

    So our objective here is not to remove stress entirely but simply to learn to control it, to hone it and to use it to our advantage.

    That’s what this book is all about. This book will teach you to take control of your physiology and your psychology so that you can experience the right emotion when you need it. You can suppress your fight-or-flight response during a presentation in order to come across as calm and collected and

    you can switch it on again during competition so that you become an un-stoppable athlete.

    You might not think that you currently have a particular problem with stress and this may well be true. But even if you don’t experience any crippling anxiety, that doesn’t mean you couldn’t benefit from being more calm, more collected and more in control of your thoughts and feelings. All of us expe-rience inappropriate anxiety to some extent, the question is simply where you fall on that spectrum.

    In this book, you will learn:

    •  How to stop panic attacks

    •  How to suppress the fight or flight response – no more shaking!

    •  How to tap into a ‘flow state’ for ultimate performance

    •  How to influence your psychology with:

    o  Food

    o  Exercise

    o  Movements

    o  Essential oils

    o  Nootropics

    o  Medications

    •  How to use meditation

    •  How to use cognitive behavioral therapy

    •  How to remain calm in any situation and approach it in the optimal way for the best results!

    Without further ado, let’s jump in and put you in control of those emotions...

    Chapter 01 - A Peek into your Fight or Flight Response

    So what exactly is stress? What is anxiety?

    Both these are psychological and physiological states that are brought about by the release of certain chemicals in your brain and body. These occur in response to physical or psychological stimuli and have an adaptive function in helping us to survive for longer.

    This might happen if you fall from a height for instance, or if you identify a threat in your immediate surroundings. In response to this, your brain’s ‘salience network’
